FramePlus - The standard Visual Basic 6 frame control does not support applications using an XP manifest - the interior of the control is rendered as a black 'blob'.

Theme support can be disabled or overridden if required - Styles: FramePlus offers a number of standard and custom styles - Child Controls: Depending on the Enabled and Checked state of the frame, child controls can be automatically enabled or disabled - Checkbox: You can display a checkbox to the left of the caption text. ButtonPlus - ButtonPlus is an alternative to the Visual Basic command button control that includes a range of features to give your buttons more functionality and visual appeal. Windows XP Visual Styles: Full support for Windows XP Visual Styles, rendering the look and feel of the ButtonPlus according to the active theme. Visual Style support can be disabled or overridden if required - Formatting options: ButtonPlus allows you to specify alternate positioning alignments for graphics and text and allows border and outline colors to be configured - Drop down support: The ButtonPlus control can style itself to look like a drop down button, including split modes. Using the DropDownItems collection, the button can automatically display dropdown menus. ScrollBarPlus - You've finished your great looking user interface, but something is missing that you can't quite put your finger on. That's right - the Visual Basic 6 scrollbars aren't drawing with a themed effect, and nothing you can do will persuade them to do so. ScrollBarPlus solves this problem, providing full theme support and with the added bonus that the ScrollBars cannot get keyboard focus (a nasty feature of the in-built Visual Basic scrollbars).
